Nekias Duncan of The Dunker Spot Podcast joins Hear District to break down the Milwaukee Bucks' evolving defense, 3-big lineups and what they've learned from Kevin Porter Jr.'s absence.
They dive into AJ Green’s importance, surviving the non-Giannis minutes and what “simplifying” the Bucks’ defense really looks like, from rebounding margins to switching schemes & zone defense.
Plus, MJ peels back the curtain on Giannis' recent interactions with Jason Kidd, his maturity this season, how his MVP case stacks up around the league, and Milwaukee's place in a heated East.
Later, MJ & Kris highlight the powerful life and story of late basketball legend, Michael Ray Richardson, including his brilliance on and off the court, his fight with prostate cancer, and why he still deserves his place in the Basketball Hall of Fame despite a stigma that’s lasted decades.

Point Giannis Possibilities + '70s Bucks & Achilles Insights with Tony Spino
In this week's Hear District, Kris & Marques Johnson are joined by former Bucks Trainer & UCLA athletics legend, Tony Spino, to reflect on the '70s Bucks & understand why Achilles injuries are plaguing the NBA. But first, MJ & Kris react to Doc Rivers' latest comments and how he plans to unleash 'Point Giannis' next season. They assess how this plan could unlock core Bucks players like the newly re-signed Jericho Sims, Gary Trent Jr. & AJ Green. They also look at how Gary Harris can add to the team and which Bucks players are standing out most in the early stages of NBA Summer League. MJ drops a hot take about Cooper Flagg before introducing Tony, who shares memories of Kareem, a rookie Marques Johnson, the great Junior Bridgeman & that era of the Milwaukee Bucks. They dive into the state of NBA injuries and why seven players lost their seasons to Achilles tears after decades of that injury being a rarity. They finish with a hilarious story about Coach John Wooden & former President Bill Clinton, and other musings about Tony's relationship with the Johnson family & his place in UCLA history.
